There is no study in the literature that evaluates the cost-effectiveness of robotic distal pancreatectomy (RDP) over laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP). We performed a comparative study of RDP and LDP with the aim of evaluating clinical and cost-effective outcomes.
This is an observational, comparative prospective nonrandomized study. The primary end point was to compare the cost-effectiveness differences between both groups. A willingness to pay of €20 000 and €30 000 per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) was used as a threshold to recognize which treatment was most cost-effective.
A total of 31 RDP and 28 LDP have been included. The overall mean total cost was similar in both groups (RDP: €9712.15 versus LDP: €9424.68; P > .5). Mean QALYs for RDP (0.652) was higher than that associated with LDP (0.59) (P > .5).
This study seems to provide data of cost-effectiveness between RDP and LDP approaches, showing some benefits for RDP.
目前尚无文献评估机器人辅助远端胰腺切除术(RDP)相对于腹腔镜远端胰腺切除术(LDP)的成本效益。我们进行了 RDP 和 LDP 的对比研究,旨在评估临床和成本效益的结果。
这是一项观察性、前瞻性、非随机的比较研究。主要终点是比较两组之间的成本效益差异。使用 20000 欧元和 30000 欧元/QALY 作为支付意愿阈值,以确定哪种治疗方法更具成本效益。
共纳入 31 例 RDP 和 28 例 LDP。两组的总平均总成本相似(RDP:9712.15 欧元,LDP:9424.68 欧元;P >.5)。RDP 的平均 QALY(0.652)高于 LDP(0.59)(P >.5)。
本研究似乎提供了 RDP 和 LDP 方法之间的成本效益数据,显示 RDP 具有一些优势。
